Need Critiques For My Blog

[BilalAhmad]

Hi everyone, I have been blogging for around 2 weeks and Alexa has already ranked my blog at 2,678,913. My blog keeps growing however in the past few days I haven't gotten much visitors. Please tell me the good points, bad points and what I still have room to improve on. Also if you could comment, Digg, Stumbleupon, Reddit and Retweet some of my posts I would be grateful.

My Blog- Football Manager 2010 Tips, Downloads, Tactics, Players and Graphics - FMFanatic

I don't really know much about Football Manager, so I con't comment on the actual content. However, I did notice a few things.

First, don't get carried away on advertisements. With a truly established user base, advertisements can be overlooked. But when you're trying to build that user base, you should focus on ease-of-use through clean design. Make it easy for them to use the site - and they will.

Second, I always find it annoying when people have "Top Commentators" lists, but then keep them NoFollow. That doesn't make me want to comment any more than usual. I mean, what's the point in me getting on that list? People use it for PR and link-building, not for bragging rights.

Good luck with the site, and keep up the hard work!

Thanks for the review! I will be cutting down on my advertisements and try and will focus on the ease of use. Also I don't know how to make not NoFollow, I just installed the widget.

I just started mine less than a week ago. I don't understand what feedburners are. Have you learned that yet?
